Be on time (the sun's-a-settin)

Take a video of your reactions to the pictures

Ask lots of questions
Bring them a treat (One time someone brought me a pink drink and it was the best thing ever)
Bring options to your shoot
Bring props, props are fun
Ask for makeup or outfit recommendations if you’re unsure!
Bring a playlist that makes you wanna dance

Hire them ;)
